About this game

Moussacre is a fast-paced 2D platformer inspired by classic cartoons; each animation being carefully drawn frame by frame. Run through levels at blistering speeds while slashing apart all who stand in your way.

This isn't your normal, family-friendly cartoon mouse. Meet MouseTrap, the paint-thirsty killing machine who yearns to steal victims' color. Prison was not nice to this poor soul. After being forced to star in cartoons for nearly a century, he completely overhauls his identity to break away from who he once was, eventually adopting his prison name, "MouseTrap." This all leads to him executing his grand prison escape, finally being free from the clutches of his owners. Still dead set on filling his life with color, MouseTrap heads for the Prisma Fortress, a massive tower said to hold the ultimate source of color; the Prisma Diamond.

  • Explore massive worlds, each with multiple objectives, clever secrets, and colorful characters to interact with.

  • Kill the powerful rulers of the fortress, each with a myriad of tricky tactics and devastating powers.

  • Earn the highest score, best time, or explore at your own pace.

    Moussacre DEMO 4 is out now!!!!

    The critically-acclaimed Moussacre DEMO just doubled in size!MAJOR ADDITIONSNEW FULL IRON WOODS WORLD: You loved the first part of Iron Woods, but what if I told you the rest of it just hit the scene? After running through the more lush areas, you stumble upon the more mechanized parts filled to the brim with saw drones. Once through, a ruined battlefield awaits as the animals and the saw drones fight in an all-out war. At the end of it all, Green Goliath, the forest's lazy general, waits in the quiet, untouched part of the forest, ready to give you the fight of your life. A neat feature is that you'll be able to warp to any previously visited area, so turn the entire world upside down!NEW SIDE MISSIONS: There's more to Moussacre than just running from point A to point B. Along the way, you can talk to NPCs that give you side missions. Upon completion, you earn keys. In the final game, keys will be used to unlock more floors in the Prisma Fortress, but in the demo, keys and color will be used to unlock additional content such as levels in Solo Levels, as well as the secret mode.MINOR UPDATESSmall tweaks were made in various areas of the game. Some examples include skipping the death sequence with Escape/Pause instead of double-tapping jump, X-rank hearts replenishing when hitting checkpoints, S-ranks for when you have an X-rank and get hit too many times, and more settings.JOIN THE DISCORDAnd as always, you can join the Discord here if you wanna see the game's continued development. I'm very receptive to feedback.Thank you all again for your continued love and support. The Kickstarter's success kicked this game into hyperdrive, and I'm excited to see it to the end!

    Moussacre DEMO 3 is out now!!!

    The critically-acclaimed Moussacre DEMO hits a new peak! MAJOR ADDITIONS NEW BOSS: Osborg; a cybernetically-enhanced rabbit whose sole mission is to stop MouseTrap's paint-thirsty massacre. He comes equipped with transforming hands that can turn into laser-shooting cannons, as well as rocket legs to zip around at high speeds. He can also use his ears to fly, and even summon weapons to inflict devastating damage on his enemies, such as a sword. NEW ABILITIES: MouseTrap is now more versatile than ever with Badges! These allow him to equip additional abilities to more easily get around and destroy his victims. Triple Jump gives an extra jump to reach higher areas more easily, Counterattack parries all attacks and hazards with perfectly-timed machete strikes (and can even deflect projectiles), and Blademerang allows MouseTrap to throw his machete like a boomerang to quickly dispatch enemies from a distance. In the full game, even more badges will be available to dominate with! NEW MODES: For those who have a difficult time playing Moussacre, a new Casual Mode has been added! Not only does MouseTrap's max health increase to 10, but he can now jump 4 times in the air before landing. Think of this mode as Moussacre's easy mode. There's also a secret unlockable mode for those dedicated enough to find it! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44815063/f1746e9b45b26462c3e94456301c3a1514665d50.png MINOR ADDITIONS INSTANT RESPAWN: Oops! You died... again! Well thankfully, you can skip the death sequence by hitting the jump button twice! ADDITIONAL UI VALUES: Every time you gain or lose score, health, or sub-points, a number will appear to show by how much. It gives just a bit more information on how many points things give or how much damage something does. This can be turned off in the settings. MOUSE CONTROLS: Just for the meme, you can select mouse inputs when rebinding keyboard controls. Get it? CROUCHING: And yes, you can now crouch. MouseTrap needed to take intense yoga classes to pull it o...

    Moussacre DEMO 2 is out now!!

    The critically-acclaimed Moussacre DEMO just got bigger! MAJOR ADDITIONS NEW LEVEL: Iron Woods; A forest that has been invaded by saw drones with the mission to wipe out all the trees. Now in a desperate struggle to survive, the wildlife have fortified the forest in the style of a military base to fight off this new mechanical threat. NEW WEAPONS: MouseTrap has come equipped with more than just a machete now. A Gun for sniping faraway enemies, a Grappling Hook for pulling himself to out-of-reach areas, and a Cannon for violently blasting those beneath him. Each weapon has both combat and movement utility, so be sure to use them all to their fullest! RANKING SYSTEM: You now receive a letter grade based on how well you played a level (how many points you scored per second). F, D, C, B, and A are from worst to best, but if you want the elusive X-rank, you will also need to avoid being damaged three times. Do you have what it takes? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44815063/f6358251804ccb21c6779ecbd3d7887d23259ded.png MINOR ADDITIONS CONTROL REBINDING: Yes, you've all been heard. Whether you play on keyboard or controller, you can now rebind your controls! Want to jump with L? Alright! Want to dash with F12? Um... sure! Want to sprint with Print Screen? You know what? Whatever your heart desires! MORE SETTINGS: You can now adjust your resolution, along with lowering music and sounds individually! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44815063/48ecaff2ffb368c3a419e1ba1ad52444d3f1173c.png JOIN THE DISCORD Without all of your support and feedback, this would not have been possible to make. Thank you everyone for playing a role in the creation of this new demo! Moussacre DEMO 3 is next. If you want the latest development news, join the Discord here!
